Raising A Few Wives in a Beast Apocalypse

On the way back to the stadium...

"Oh look! People!" Jade suddenly shouted out in surprise when she saw several people dashing away in the distance.

Her reaction was understandable though. After all, even though they moved quite a lot in the apocalypse, they seldom come across other people. Not that people were completely gone from the outside world. But what sane person would stick around when they see a floating mansion coming their way?

Because of that and the fact that people generally no longer loitered around because of the many beasts going around. Made it pretty hard for Muku's group to encounter people. Especially when it's close to nighttime. Most people who lived in the outside world would have long retreated to their hideouts.

After all, beasts ruled the night even more than they ruled the day. Not to mention that humans are generally not good at dealing with things in the darkness. Even if a person had night vision, they would still choose to avoid the night if they can.

Hell, even Muku's group, who had Jade and Layla, who would still be fine, if not better, at night. Didn't normally move around during nighttime. It's like an instinct for most people to avoid the night if they can. The point is, seeing people going around in an area that didn't seem to have any possible hiding areas close to 6 PM was rather odd. Especially when people were generally hard to spot in the apocalypse world...

"Ahh!" Suddenly, a surprised and frightened voice rang out from one of the women behind Muku's group.

He and the others immediately looked back at the source. It was a young woman who was now shaking in fear while looking in the direction of several people. Even the eyes of the other women were filled with fear as they also looked in the direction. Anyone in the know could easily tell what was going on.

"So, I think it's safe to assume that those are the escaped gang members from Mest's gang" Muku made an educated guess from the information he had and the reactions of the women.

He had found out the previous evening that some of Mest's gang members had escaped while he was fighting him. They were in some of the stadium's rooms when he killed the ones outside. And when Mest came to confront him. Some who recognised him ran away. The wimps from the group that didn't even know him also ran away.

He thought that they would have gone far away by that point. So he didn't bother with trying to look for them. Just attributing their escape to their good luck.

But to think the idiots would still be close by moving around like headless sheep. It was really bewildering, but then again, it's understandable that he wouldn't understand how the minds of such people worked.

"Can I deal with them?" Jade, who had been bored out of her mind most of the day, offered to help. To her, they showed up at the right time since she had been looking for something to vent her frustrations on. And for some reason, they hadn't come across any beasts outside of those ants since morning.

"Sure, just don't kill anyone. I've got a plan for them" Muku agreed to let Jade take down the gang members. He had no reason to refuse and could see that she was about to blow as well. The girl just wasn't the type to sit still.

"Great! But I can't promise that a few of their bones won't be broken", With that happy but terrifying reply. Jade disappeared from the silver platform.

....

Around a kilometre away from Muku's group...

"Hey!, do you also see what I'm seeing?" One man asked his companions with a bewildered look on his face.

"If you mean a group of people on a floating platform with a bunch of large ants floating above them...then yeah" Another one replied with a similarly bewildered expression.

"Oh, good! I thought I was going crazy,", The first man to speak said while heaving a sigh of relief.

"Nuh you're fine...but such an odd sight. I can only think of one person group who can do that..." The second guy reassured the first guy.

But his words his words immediately terrified everyone in his group. He himself was also terrified when he realised what he had just said and what it meant.

"Run!" Nobody knew who said it among them. But as soon as it was said all of them immediately made a break for it. Everyone ran in their own direction, it could even be said that they scattered away.

"Ahh!"

"Ahh!"

"Ahhhh"...

Suddenly as they ran, a green blurry figure would rush up to each of them and punch them once. Each punch was done in a specific way. At the end of it, all twelve of them had been punched back to their initial position. Though unlike before when they stood. This time they were on the ground in a pile, groaning in pain while clutching their stomachs.

"It was a good idea to immediately run when you spotted danger. But sadly, you were all too late" Suddenly, a youthful and arrogant female voice sounded as the blurry green figure became clearer until the person within became completely clear. Obviously, it was Jade.

"Argh!, it's one of them!" One of the gang members groaned first before speaking in terror. He could already feel his demise quickly approaching.

"Wait!, she's alone...maybe the others are too slow and will arrive here late. Why don't we try to take her out before they are and make our escape" Another member who was also fighting through the pain on the ground spoke.

Hearing his words, the others hesitated at first. But after thinking about it. They didn't have any other choice in the matter. It was either this or they would soon be captured and eventually killed. Probably in a horrible way too. After all, they knew what they had done deserved nothing less.

"Okay, let's do it!" One after the other, they all agreed to the plan as they got up still clutching their stomachs.

Soon, they were all up and looking at Jade viciously like they were ready to tear her apart.

"Little girl, you better get out of our way unless you want to face our combined wrath. Which I assure you, you won't be able to take", One of the gang members threatened Jade menacingly, hoping that she would back off and they could have more time to run away

They still hadn't noticed that the others from Jade's group weren't making an effort to move faster. Otherwise, they probably would have realised that they had no chance. Since only confident people would move like Muku's group was doing in such a situation.

"Oh, is that so?. Again, good plan...but can you succeed this time?" Jade replied with a playful smile smile on her face. Her voice still sounded as arrogant as before.

"You brat! We'll make you eat those words!. You think you are our opponent just because that Muku fellow is strong and you caught us off guard?!" The gang members were instantly angered as they immediately ran toward Jade.

Their bodies glowed with different lights from their various powers. Honestly, at that moment, they looked quite threatening.

"Hehe", Jade only gave a small chuckle. Then she disappeared from their sight again. This time they couldn't even see the blurry green silhouette from before.

....

A little while later....

"Did you have to break all their limps though?" Emily asked Jade with a deadpan expression on her face.

Her eyes looked at the twelve gang members who were groaning on the ground. Each and every one of them had both their hands and their legs broken in wired angles. It's not that she felt pity for the beasts in human skin.

She felt like Jade was doing something completely unnecessary and troublesome for no reason at all since, later on, the gang members would be punished anyway.

"Hehe, what do you mean? You know they all attacked me at once right?. Me, a weak and alone young girl. I was just defending myself. What if they had taken advantage of me if I didn't do this?" Jade replied mischievously, clearly in a good mood. She was also looking at the twelve gang members, enjoying her handwork.

"Tsk, whatever you psycho" Emily replied while rolling her eyes, not wanting to bother with Jade anymore.

"Me, psycho!?. You're the one who laughed like a crazy person before when you used your powers" Jade retorted and fired back. Refusing to take the insult lying down.

"Do you want to fight?" Emily replied with a smile as her body was immediately enveloped by a golden flame.

"Sure" Jade didn't back down as her Beast Aura started leaking out as she looked at Emily.

"Okay girls, that's enough. This isn't the time or place" Audrey intervened after noticing that things were quickly getting out of hand.

"Yes ma'am!"×2 Both girls replied at once and dispersed their gathering power. They respected Audrey that much.

"Okay everyone, let's get ready to go" Muku who had been watching the show quietly finally spoke up. He was keeping to his words of not overly involving himself in every small issue. Which seemed to be the right decision so far.

And so, with a bit more baggage. Of the groaning variety, the group continued their journey...
